CLIMB THE HEIGHT
- To complete the challenge you must gain the total elevation of your chosen virtual Everesting Challenge in one effort.
- Quarter Everesting 2212m (7258ft)
Half Everesting 4424m (14,515ft)
Full Everesting 8848m (29,029ft)
Everesting Roam 10,000m+ (32,809ft+) - Check potential routes and segments on the Everesting calculator to make sure they appropriate.
- Your attempt must be recorded on Strava.
ONE HILL
- Approved Platforms:
– Zwift
– MyWhoosh
– Rouvy
– FulGaz
– Biketerra
– TrainingPeaks Virtual - Anything that has a vertical gain can be used to complete a vEveresting.
- Rides must only focus on one hill or mountain per ride (e.g. you can’t base yourself in one location and ride multiple hills).
- Rides cannot be loops. The descent must be via the same road.
- Rides must be full ascents of your chosen climb each time. You can’t commit to a combination of full and half laps.
- Once you hit your climbing target you can abandon that repeat.
- You can start and finish the ride anywhere on the hill (bottom, middle, or top)
- No need to stay on the trainer on descents. Feel free to use this time to top up food, take a change of clothes, have a stretch etc.
- Your trainer must be set to 100% effort or equivalent. Virtual shifting such as Zwift Hub is acceptable. Other forms of electronic manipulation such as a third-party virtual assistant is not permitted.
SINGLE ACTIVITY
- The challenge must be completed in one attempt with no sleep.
- Breaks for meals are acceptable.
- You can break for as long as you need, keep in mind this counts towards the total elapsed time. Your final time for the challenge is taken as the total elapsed time of the attempt, not the total moving time.
